-
Introduction to Automation and Control Engineering ; analysis and design of single-input-single-output feedback control systems using linear models, analog and digital implementation of controllers.
Content | Core content | Complementary knowledge | Specialist knowledge |
1. | Purpose , structure and operational principles of feedback as well as feedforward control systems ; PID control ; implementation of controllers, simulation | Idea of Multivariable control | |
2. | Modelling and simulation based on ODEs, block diagrams, transfer functions , inverse Laplace transform. | Physical modelling based on material etc. balances, state space models, model concepts | Matlab including Simulink and Control System Toolbox. Matlab programming and documentation of figures. |
3. | Understanding and description of phenomena associated with stability, stationary responses as well as transient responses using various models. Effects of feedback control. | Analysis using a state-space model. Analysis of non-linear control systems through simulations. | |
4. | Coping with uncertainty: analysis and design of sufficient degree of stability as well as analysis of sensitivity with Bode and Nichols diagrams. | Nyquist diagrams in analysis. | |
5. | Design of step responses using frequency response methods and root locus. |
Grades for mastering basic core knowledge: 1 = satifactory , 2 = average, 3 = good. Grade 4 also requires excellent skills of analysis. Add excellent skills of design to obtain grade 5.
Numerical evaluation scale (1-5) will be used on the course
